This document presents the Body of Knowledge, a key component of the EDISON Data Science Competences Framework which is in turn based on the study of the demand and supply sides for Data Science competences and skills in research and industry, as well as existing standards, taxonomies and studies.

The Data Science Competences Framework is a cornerstone component of the whole EDISON framework. CF-DS provides the basis for Data Science Body of Knowledge (DS-BoK) and the DAta Science Model Curriculum (MC-DC) definitions, and further for the Data Science Professional certification.
